in reply to LWP for URL monitoring - 500 connect timeout errors

The thing is that the external websites (behind proxy) are givign time outs and not authenitcation or forbidden messages.

It looks like your proxy can't connect to external servers. Perhaps firewall problem.

    But, I am accessing all websites from my browser (IE 7) with the same proxy configured.

    as I have the proxy configured, I'm not aware that the command line, or code would behave differently as compared to a browser, or is that the case?

    Additonally, the thing is its NOT giving a forbidden or authentication codes, its giving only a timeout. And the default period is 180 seconds - and still it times out.

    Authentication and forbidden errors seem to come up immediately.
